Our club recently agreed to help out refugees in Ukraine who are fleeing to Poland by donating to ShelterBox Canada, which is part of Rotary International. So far we have enough for 4 shelter boxes ($1,200 each).
ShelterBox is an international disaster relief organization that hand-delivers aid to families devastated by conflict or natural disaster, to give them safe shelter and the tools to rebuild communities.
To help us even further with this campaign, a club member has graciously agreed to match up to $10,000 that our club is able to raise!
If you are interested in donating, please contact Dr. David Marsh (you can email us at info@nulltransconarotary.ca for contact info).
Thank you for your support!
